The majority of the iamges portraying the Greman armed forces during World War Ii were shot by closely censored Kriegsberichter (war Correspondents), and frequently obfuscated the actual wartime experience for propaganda purposes. In this all new series, one can look back in time and see the war through the untainted lenses of the individual Frontsoldaten, who were dqaring enough to capture this epic period on film.

The outstanding colour gallery has the exclusive privilege of featuring original period uniforms, equipment, and accessories from internationally acclaimed collectors.
